Jesus said, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener… Remain in me, and I in you, and you will bear much fruit” (John 15).
Being connected to God is more than a Sunday routine. It is a daily decision to live in Him, to let Him prune the parts of us that do not belong, and to trust His love to bring growth. Fruit does not grow by accident. It grows when the branch stays connected to the vine.
Here is the beauty of it. We do not grow fruit on our own. God does the work. Our part is to remain in relationship with Jesus, to live in His Word, to love one another, and to trust Him even when pruning hurts.
When we stay connected, the fruit is not just for us. Others are blessed by it. Forgiveness flows. Joy remains. Prayers are answered. God is glorified.
You did not choose Him. He chose you with purpose so that your fruit would last. Built to last. Chosen to remain.
Without Jesus, I would not be here. I trust Him. Do you?
